Purpose Dupilumab is recommended to be administered biweekly to treat adult patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD). Real clinical practice data on the clinical efficacy of monthly dupilumab therapy are limited. We analyzed real clinical practice data on the clinical efficacy of monthly dupilumab therapy and predictive markers for favorable clinical responses to the therapy. Methods Medical records of 57 adult patients with moderate-to-severe AD who received dupilumab therapy every 4 weeks for 16 weeks were analyzed retrospectively. Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) were recorded at baseline and week 16. Clinical responses to monthly dupilumab therapy were defined as the proportion of patients with decreased EASI scores of at least 50% or 75% from baseline at week 16 (EASI-50 or EASI-75). Blood eosinophil counts and serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels were measured at baseline and week 16. Results Monthly dupilumab therapy showed EASI-50 and EASI-75 clinical responses in 48 (84.2%) and 27 (47.4%) of 57 patients at week 16, respectively. The percentage decrease in EASI scores from baseline at week 16 was significantly inversely correlated with baseline blood eosinophil count (correlation coefficient r = −0.405, P = 0.002) and baseline serum LDH level (r = −0.466, P < 0.001). The EASI-75 response rate was higher in patients with low (< 500/µL, 73.3%) than in those with high (≥ 500/µL, 37.5%) baseline blood eosinophil counts (P = 0.032), and was higher in patients with low (< 400 U/L, 55.6%) than those with high (≥ 400 U/L, 10.0%) baseline serum LDH levels (P = 0.013). Conclusions Monthly dupilumab therapy was clinically effective in adult patients with moderate-to-severe AD in real clinical practice. Baseline blood eosinophil count and serum LDH level could be predictive markers for clinical response to dupilumab therapy.
